For readers who listen
Audio is a growing share of book consumption, and it is a genuinely different medium. Production covers script preparation, narration, mastering and distribution.
Clear scope and milestones
Author-first ownership
Structured review points
Professional delivery
The problem this solves
Home-recorded audiobooks get rejected on technical grounds, and text read verbatim from a print manuscript often sounds wrong out loud.
What you end up with
A retailer-compliant audiobook, narrated well, mastered to specification and listed alongside your print and eBook editions.
